The US President says the young migrants he meets in Kuala Lumpur represent the opposite of the terrorists in Mali and Paris.

US President Barack Obama has delivered a rebuke to conservative critics back home while on a trip to Malaysia by meeting refugee children and declaring: "They're just like our kids."

He wandered through the classroom asking the neatly dressed children, some of whom have been cleared to resettle in the US, about their hopes for the future.

Back home there is a political backlash against Syrian refugees following the Paris attacks that killed 130 people after it emerged one of the terrorists may have blended in with migrants in Greece.

I'll bet they won't be going to Sidwell Friends School with the D.C. elites.

This is rich, coming from the jerk whose own family lives in shacks and has to beg for hundreds of dollars for medical bills from Dinesh. He cant even take care of his own blood family, and he wants us to take in and pay for his spiritual brothers?

Yes, except our miniters/pastors/priesters and the parents are not teaching and indoctrinating our kids to kill people with a knife just for being a different religion.

Speaking of “our kids,” does anyone care about them or their future? Seems like “refugees” and “undocumented immigrants” are the only people who matter anymore.
